What would make you buy a PS3?



Sure it should have a Blu-Ray disk unit, it should also be a Sony brand but it would be great if there 20 new games of course! Sony is doing just that in biggest ever line up of software for the launch of a new gaming console, Sony have unveiled more than 20 first and third party titles in preparation for the mighty PS3. They're going to deliver half a million units during the launch phase, 400 thousand will go to the US and 100 thousand in Japan. These games include:
Resistance: Fall of Man, NBA 07, Genji: Days of the Blade and also some new games from third party publisher such as Blazing Angels Squadrons of WWII, Call of Duty 3, EA Sports Fight Night Round 3, Mobile Suit Gundam: CROSSFIRE, NBA 2K7, in addition to many others.

All I can say to gamers out there is "start saving your money till November 17" you're gonna need it!

The PS3's 3.2 GHz Cell processor, developed jointly by Sony, Toshiba and IBM ("SIT"), is an implementation to dynamically assign physical processor cores to do different types of work independantly. It has a PowerPC-based "Power Processing Element" (PPE) and six accessible 3.2 GHz Synergistic Processing Elements (SPEs), a seventh runs in a special mode and is dedicated to OS security, and an eighth disabled to improve production yields. The PPE, SPE's and other elements ("units") are connected via an Element Interconnect Bus which serves to connect all of the units in a ring-style bus. The PPE has a 512KB level 2 cache and one VMX vector unit. Each of the SPEs is a RISC processor with 128 128-bit SIMD GPRs and superscalar functions. Each SPE contains 256KB of non-cached memory (local storage, "LS") that is shared by program code and work data. SPEs may access more data in the main memory using DMA. The floating point performance of the whole system (CPU + GPU) is reported to be 2.18 TFLOPS[38]. PlayStation 3's Cell CPU achieves 218 GFLOPS single precision float and is reported at around 26 GFLOPS double precision. The PS3 will ship with 256 MB of Rambus XDR DRAM, clocked at CPU die speed.
